42 \item Why? Because these days it's just not necessary to
43 make
[un
]ethical compromises in order to make a profitable,
44 desirable mass-volume product\\
45 {\it (There's enough companies doing that: where it's got us??)
}
46 \item How? By leveraging the long-establised strategic cost and
47 maintenance benefits of libre-licensed software (and
49 {\it making sure that the people who provide it are
50 financially rewarded
}. Also by empowering diverse team
52 \item What? A
2.5ghz RISC-V
64-bit SoC that has
53 a
3D Embedded GPU,
1080p Video decode, and interfaces
54 to make it attractive for use in tablets, netbooks, industrial
55 embedded and more.
22nm or less, under
400 pins, under USD \$
